Why? Nothing but trash and rotting food waste, not a bio hazard.

There so many dangerous chemicals, bacteria and virus in trash trucks...
you don't just crawl under them, do you?

Really? Just trash and rotting food waste? No needles, saturated diapers,
prescription medicines, etc?

Are you comfortable that all of these rules are being followed by all
residences and businesses?

A crook once got into a prison trash compactor without the officer
knowing. He was compacted and later the trash truck dumped his body
at the land fill. They found his a body a day or two later. So much
for his escape. Now all prison compactors are locked.

Dead pets or other animals cannot be put in to "trash" containers, per
our county health codes.

That is just a totally wrong decision.

Why lock the prison compactors? That criminal got what he deserved... he tried to escape and he got what he deserved.
Think of all the money society saved. Then some bleeding heart ****es a lot of it away on locks.

All contained in a steel box. When is the last time you had a truck
lose a diaper and it hit you or your car?

https://public.health.oregon.gov/Dis...sWasteFAQ.aspx



I'm not worried.


Are diapers soiled with urine or feces considered "infectious waste"?

No.


Do linens soiled with blood or body fluids need to be treated as
infectious waste?

No. Linens are reused and therefore do not enter the waste stream.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Although
soiled linen may harbor large numbers of pathogenic microorganisms, the
risk of actual disease transmission from soiled linen is
negligiblecommon-sense hygienic practices for processing and storage of
linen are recommended." (From www.cdc.gov/HAI/prevent/laundry.html):

Well, Uuuhh, let me see ... I AIN'T SAYIN' !!!!

I have to mainly avoid stepping in dog s---- all over my
sidewalks. (One of my neighbors has taught his dog to
walk and s---. Makes a mess out of the mailbox clusters.)

I have seen trash trucks "leak". Hopefully it was
water on the outside from rain or washing. Okay,
"let's say" that was what it was.

What a wonderful method of execution that could be. A civilized society needs a horrific form of capital punishment. Frack lethal injection, I want to see a REAL deterrent. Special absorbent compactor execution bags could be used that vanish in a crematorium so there would be no sewer clogs when the ground up bones and ashes are flushed down the sewer. ヽ(*_*)ノ

Mr. Man-wai Chang posted for all of us...



Out of curiosity... Aren't these trucks all bio-hazards?


I know we hated to go out for a vehicle fire in one. It all ended being
dumped out and hosed down. Yummy. The company was responsible to reload the
truck. Any red bag or notable hazards got a call to communications for an
environmental response. Took up a lot of volunteers time.
